Happy Belated Birthday, Enervate.
"It was a gorgeous sight to behold."
How beautiful was it?
"Why you wanna know?"
I'm curious, that's all. You and him, you've been gushing since you came in, you've compared your tea, your cheesecake, the china…
"That's because it really was a sight to behold."
Don't you think you ought to share the joy? We're friends, people of the cloth, it's what we do for a living. Spread happiness to all.
"She's got a point there, Fawkes."
"Fine. Sit down, we'll share the joy. Experience the rapture and all that."
Oooo goodie~
"The sky was blue that day."
"-a brilliant bright hue."
Go on.
"The sun cast its gentle fingers on the sun-baked tiles, tracing the bumpy contours, embracing the face of a young girl, barely eight, I wager."
"She was barefooted, running down the clay streets in wanton glee. Two old ladies chatting at the side, calling her to slow down lest she injure herself. The girl giggles in response, and runs off."
"You could feel the serenity of the place. The Mariachi knows his idyllic spots."
"Prolly to calm his nerves when he's not kicking ass and taking names left and right in the Lord's name."
Hey, Armand's a nice guy! A little stoic and scary, but his heart's in the right place! Anyway, go on, it does sound like a gorgeous sight.
"That's it."
…What?
"The end. Fini. It's over. Das ende. Owari, as you Japanese call it."
You mean to say all that gushing and poetry for 5 minutes of a little girl running down a street??
"Hey, it was a VERY breathtaking sight."
You're both lying, I know it.
"Quisling, she said we're liars. I'm deeply hurt. I think I severed an artery. ;__;"
"I know what you mean Fawkes, I feel like I have no stomach. T__T"
Tell me the rest.
"That's the rest, really."
MORE. I want MORE. ALL of it.
" Ohh, you wanted more. You wanna tell her?"
"Then the sky turned a deep crimson."
The sun set?
"No, it rained blood."
"Our bomb went off at exactly noon. =D"
…what?
"Flattened the town, it did. About nine hovels wide?"
"Eight and a half. It wasn't easy keeping track, those bloody clay tiles make for fantastic shrapnel. Kept having to cover my eyes."
"They never saw it coming. =D"
YOU LEVELLED A VILLAGE?
"I prefer the term 'paving the way for development'."
"Bloody heathens run fast. Thought we wouldn't outrun the stampede."
"Then the Mariachi saw us and we thought we were REALLY goners."
"Went batshit insane, screaming I TOLD YOU TWO FUCKERS TO STAY OUT OF TROUBLE and opened fire. Fine way to treat fellow colleagues."
I'm thinking he did the right thing.
"Then the second bomb went off, and that's pretty much the whole place gone. ^_^"
"Don't worry, the Mariachi and us weren't hurt."
I wish you both were…
"Funny though, haven't seen him around since. Think he's still mad at us?"
"Feh, he's always mad, if you ask me. Remember the one we set off in Madrid? That wasn't as huge and he still got pissed."
"True. Oh, and since we remembered your message the last time, we brought you a souvenir!"
I'm almost afraid to ask…what did you get?
"Remember the girl we spoke about earlier? We found her hand. =D"
"Here you go. Don't worry, we cleaned it up so it wouldn't leave a mess. ^__^"
…You know what?
"What?"
I wish you'd stopped right at the beginning of the story.
"We told you so."
